Genes affected
RAD51B (HGNC:9822): (RAD51 paralog B) The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the RAD51 protein family. RAD51 family members are evolutionarily conserved proteins essential for DNA repair by homologous recombination. This protein has been shown to form a stable heterodimer with the family member RAD51C, which further interacts with the other family members, such as RAD51, XRCC2, and XRCC3. Overexpression of this gene was found to cause cell cycle G1 delay and cell apoptosis, which suggested a role of this protein in sensing DNA damage. Rearrangements between this locus and high mobility group AT-hook 2 (HMGA2, GeneID 8091) have been observed in uterine leiomyomata. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2016]

Hereditary breast ovarian cancer syndrome Pathogenic:2
Dec 12, 2015
Clinical Cancer Genetics and Family Consultants, Athens Medical Center
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The mutation was observed in one patient with high grade DCIS, Her2 positive and strong family history (mother with bilateral breast cancer and maternal aunt with breast cancer and thyroid cancer). The same mutation has been described as a leaky splicing variant of the RAD51B (PMID:26898890). First time in Greece, it has been observed among 164 patients with breast and ovarian cancers tested in the our clinic. We consider this variant to be likely pathogenic. -

Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome Pathogenic:1
Jan 01, 2020
GeneKor MSA
Significance:Likely pathogenic
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

This variant is change of the last base in exon 2 of the RAD51B gene, which is conserved in the human genome and other genomes. Although it does not lead to an amino acid change, it is expected that this alteration causes improper sRNA splicing and deletion of the entire exon. Thus the protein produced by one allele is expected to be truncated and non-functional. This variant has been described in the international literature in individuals undergoing panel testing for hereditary syndrome (PMID: 31159747). The mutation database ClinVar contains entries for this variant (Variation ID: 221910). -

not specified Uncertain:1
Apr 01, 2025
Ambry Genetics
Significance:Uncertain significance
Review Status:criteria provided, single submitter
Collection Method:clinical testing

The c.84G>A variant (also known as p.Q28Q), located in coding exon 1 of the RAD51B gene, results from a G to A substitution at nucleotide position 84. This nucleotide substitution does not change the glutamine at codon 28. However, this change occurs in the last base pair of coding exon 1, which makes it likely to have some effect on normal mRNA splicing. This nucleotide position is highly conserved in available vertebrate species. In silico splice site analysis predicts that this alteration will weaken the native splice donor site. The evidence for this gene-disease relationship is limited; therefore, the clinical significance of this alteration is unclear. -
